100. What I'm really AFRAID of

from Embracing Enough · host Dina Scippa

It's the 100th episode! In this episode, we focus on something I know I’ve been struggling with and I know so many women who I speak to struggle with – and it’s being a people pleaser. And here’s the thing: people pleasing started early on as a child, can get worse in adolescence when we're fighting for that need to belong, and can way out of control if we let it linger too long in adulthood. While for so many of us, it's what we rely on best to survive; the more time goes on, the greater this pattern takes shape in your life and takes you further and further away from developing a relationship with yourself. For many of us, people-pleasing is such an ingrained pattern that we don’t even realize we’re doing it. But in order to break up with people pleasing, you have to first get honest with yourself as to how you've been choosing this. Listen in on the 4 reflections I have about what people pleasing actually creates and how to move away from it - one step at a time.
